There was also a version called Golf Country, designed for light off-road driving. It had more suspension travel, four-wheel drive, bullbars (generally over a single headlight grill), a skidplate for protecting the engine area, and a spare wheel mounted externally on the back. In Europe it was offered with the acclaimed 114 bhp 1.8 8v petrol engine, and in smaller numbers, the 75 hp 1.6 GTD turbo diesel engine. The Golf Country was particularly popular in Alpine regions in central Europe.

See this is why I love VW

Its an example of VW being ahead of the times in concept.

Also far2000 you should know that VW Motorsport made a pre-R32 Performance Hatcback, back in 1989/1990 called the Golf G60 Limited which had around 210 with 10-15 or so producing 240hp, all G60s had Syncro AWD
